“Be still and know that I am God” (v.10)
Our world has become increasingly noisy to the
point that we can hardly find a quiet place for devotional time with God.
Knowing God involves experiencing regular times of silent waiting before Him.
But even if we were able to silence all external sound, the internal noises of
worry, concern, strife, etc. would still reverberate in our minds with the
result that we end up being agitated.
So how do we arrive at calming our hearts in
practical terms? God who commands us to be still perfectly understands
our dilemma so He has provided a cure to quiet our troubled hearts. It
involves exchanging our cares and anxieties for His peace. (Philippians 4:6-7)
In the face of all life’s circumstances, what we
need is the presence and power of God. Be still.
Le
verset 10 du Psaume 46 dit “calmez-vous et sachez que Je suis Dieu”
A
part le bruit extérieur qui nous empêche de trouver un endroit tranquille pour
communiquer avec notre Dieu, nous sommes confrontés aux bruits intérieurs
causés par des soucis de tout genre. Le Seigneur nous invite à échanger
nos soucis avec Sa paix. (Philippiens 4 : 6 à 7). En faisant cela
nous aurons le cœur tranquille et pourrons donc communiquer avec Lui.
